About ArtSway's Residency Programme:
ArtSway has developed a high quality reputation for residency based activity for visual artists. Each residency offers a professional fee, production support and the opportunity to present work produced during the residency in ArtSway's galleries with the full support of a professional visual arts organisation. Information about previous artists in residence and their work can be seen through the links below and through the Exhibitions section of this website. ArtSway has traditionally offered three production based residencies in each year either in partnership with other organisations and/or by open submission.

Previous exhibitions and projects by artist who have undertaken residencies at ArtSway can be viewed through the Previous Exhibition page and are marked with an 'R'.
